An Academic Medical Center (AMC) is not just a hospital. It is the engine of medical progress. You exist at the complex intersection of patient care, advanced research, and medical education. In this sector, the mission is threefold. You must treat the most complex cases in the region, teach the next generation of providers, and discover the cures of tomorrow. The mandate is heavy. You must balance the open collaboration required for science with the locked-down privacy required for patient care. You are managing a city within a city, where a single breach can threaten federal funding, patient trust, and institutional prestige.
​
Moraph Academic Solutions is the specialized practice engineered to serve Research Hospitals, Medical Schools, and Independent Research Institutes. We act as the secure bridge between the bedside and the bench. From the lecture hall to the clean room, we provide the digital infrastructure that powers the future of medicine.
The Architecture of Value
Open Science. Closed Security.
Academic leaders face a relentless paradox. You must encourage the free exchange of ideas across universities and borders while strictly adhering to HIPAA privacy rules and federal grant security mandates (NIST 800-171). Moraph resolves this tension.
We operate on a philosophy of Collaboration and Control. Whether we are architecting a high-performance compute cluster or securing a student information system, our approach is rooted in "Dual-Persona" design. We recognize that in an AMC, a user is often both a clinician and a researcher.
​
Our solutions are engineered to withstand the rigorous scrutiny of the NIH, OCR, and Department of Education. We do not retroactively apply controls. We embed FERPA privacy, Common Rule ethics, and Grant Security safeguards directly into the architecture of your operations.
Our Operational Model: The Hybrid Advantage
Proprietary Precision Meets Best-of-Breed Scale.
Academic IT is often a fragmented landscape of hospital systems, university networks, and shadow IT labs. Moraph offers a unique hybrid capability that unifies the academic stack. We operate through two powerful, integrated streams:
1. Moraph Proprietary SaaS
Purpose-built applications for the industry’s most critical identity and funding gaps. For the specific compliance and data hurdles that generic software cannot handle, we deploy our own engineering. These are validated applications designed to protect the grant and the patient.
-
Research Identity Bridge: An automated identity governance tool. It manages the complex "Dual Persona" of physician-scientists. It ensures that when a user logs in to do research, they see de-identified data, but when they log in to treat patients, they see the full chart. It prevents the accidental commingling of clinical and research data.
-
Grant Security Shield: A compliance dashboard for federal funding. It maps your IT controls directly to NIST 800-171 and CMMC requirements. It ensures that you can prove to the NIH or DoD that your research environment is secure, protecting your funding streams.
-
Bio-Repository Manager: A chain-of-custody engine for research samples. It tracks tissue and blood samples from the operating room to the freezer. It ensures that valuable biological assets are indexed, consent-verified, and retrievable for future studies.
2. The Partner Ecosystem (Academic Edition)
Managed implementation and governance of global platforms. Institutes need the power of modern cloud and collaboration tools, but they need them integrated with both the EHR and the Learning Management System. We are the experts in the "Academic Editions" of these platforms.
-
High-Performance Computing (HPC): Management of AWS or Azure research clusters. We provide the burst compute capacity required for genomic sequencing and population health modeling. We ensure researchers have supercomputer power on demand without the campus data center overhead.
-
Secure Collaboration Hubs: Deployment of Box, Dropbox, or Microsoft Teams for multi-center studies. We configure these platforms to allow secure file sharing with external universities while blocking the upload of unencrypted PHI.
-
Research EHR Modules: Optimization of Epic (Cosmos/Caboodle) or Cerner research modules. We help you extract value from your clinical data warehouse. We build the "Honest Broker" systems that de-identify patient records for safe analysis.
Research Hospitals & Clinical Trials
Translational Velocity.
For the clinical side of the AMC, the goal is "Bench to Bedside." Moraph partners with CMIOs and Research Deans to accelerate the translation of discovery into care.
-
Clinical Trial Management Systems (CTMS): We modernize the infrastructure running your trials. We integrate the CTMS with the EHR to automate billing compliance. We ensure that research procedures are billed to the grant, not the insurance company, preventing Medicare fraud.
-
Subject Recruitment Technology: We deploy secure tools to identify eligible patients within your own hospital. We use natural language processing (NLP) to scan physician notes for inclusion criteria, helping you fill trials faster.
-
Consent Management: We digitize the informed consent process. We ensure that patient consent forms are stored securely and accessible to both the research team and the treating physician.
Medical Schools & Education
The Next Generation.
For the education side, the user is the digital native student. Moraph provides the simulation and learning technology that prepares them for modern practice.
-
Simulation Center Tech: We manage the audiovisual and IT infrastructure of simulation labs. We ensure that high-fidelity mannequins and recording systems are online and integrated, providing a seamless feedback loop for students.
-
Secure Testing Environments: We secure the platforms used for high-stakes medical exams. We ensure that testing data is protected under FERPA and that the testing environment is resilient against cheating or crashing.
-
Virtual Desktop for Students: We provide secure remote access to hospital systems for medical students. We allow them to view charts for educational purposes from their dorms without exposing the hospital network to personal laptops.
Independent Research Institutes
Data as the Product.
For standalone institutes, data integrity is the currency. Moraph ensures that the scientific computing environment is robust and secure.
-
Big Data Architecture: We architect the storage solutions for massive datasets (Cryo-EM, Genomics). We create tiered storage strategies that keep active data fast and hot, while moving cold data to cheap archival storage automatically.
-
Intellectual Property Protection: We act as the guardians of your discoveries. We implement Data Loss Prevention (DLP) tools that detect if a researcher attempts to download the entire patent database to an external drive.
-
Collaboration Federations: We build the identity trust frameworks (like InCommon) that allow your scientists to log in to global research resources using their institute credentials.
The Moraph Difference: Managed Governance
We Don't Just Host. We Facilitate.
The greatest risk to Academic IT is "Shadow Science." Researchers often buy their own servers or use unapproved cloud tools to bypass slow central IT. This creates massive security holes. Moraph distinguishes itself through our Managed Governance model. We act as the enablers of science, not the blockers.
-
The "Researcher-Aware" Service Desk: For our academic clients, support isn't routed to a generic queue. It is handled by our Global Resilience Command. We understand that a failed HPC job the night before a grant submission is a career emergency. We prioritize it accordingly.
-
Grant Deadline Operations: We scale our support during key NIH grant submission windows. We ensure that systems remain stable and performant when the entire campus is uploading data simultaneously.
-
Honest Broker Services: We act as the neutral third party for data requests. We validate that a researcher has IRB approval before we release any clinical data, protecting the institution from privacy violations.
